Horn

[gibbo]

One thing I dont like about the ATis the pi$$y sounding horn.
When those stupid lemming type pedestrians step into my path without looking and/or listening, I dont want them to think that the frantic tooting behind them is a moped or an old granny on her mobility scooter. No. I want to deliver a blast that will split eardrums, induce heart attacks, & with any luck, cause the offending idiot to soil themselves. So something with a bit of volume then.

Any suggestions for a replacement?

You don't need a loud horn - just a loud can! The pedestrians will look at you even if they don't have to cross the road.

Got one. It works fine as a warning when on the move, like when the lights turn green & people are still crossing the road on the other side of the intersection. I love the look of stunned fear people get on their faces as you accelerate towards them at full throttle, Remus blaring. Its really funny watching business types trying to sprint out of your way whilst clad in suits & overcoats, clutching their laptop / briefcase / copy of the evening standard. Its great stress relief after a sh!t day.
But I digress, back to the horn.
Its more for when filtering through slow traffic & the sound of the bike is lost in the surrounding drone of other vehicles. Need to watch for those peds that step out from between buses, cars etc into the middle of the road without thinking / looking.
I'll stop now, otherwise this will turn into a general rant about other road users & I wil never get an answer on the horn question.

Never thought of fitting a bigger horn on my one. The existing horn sounds fine and loud enough.

Still, this looks like a good laugh: http://www.mandp.co.uk/productInfo.aspx?catRef=537002

Plays 6 different sounds such as Tarzan, horse, cow, wolf whistle, Road Runner, and Woody Woodpecker

The cluncky rattling AT clutch does its part as well.

I had double airhorns (Fiamm I believe the make was) once on a BMW GS, that was loud yet "distinctive". These were standard on BMW RT/RS models, so they are legal and good chance a breaker can help you to a pair for not too much.
